SYNOPSIS

  my $dm = Dist::Metadata->new(struct => {
    files => {
      'lib/Mod.pm' => 'package Mod; sub something { ... }',
      'README'     => 'this is a fake dist, useful for testing',
    }
  });

DESCRIPTION

This is a subclass of Dist::Metadata::Dist to enable mocking up a dist from perl data structures.

This is mostly used for testing but might be useful if you already have an in-memory representation of a dist that you'd like to examine.

It's probably not very useful on it's own though, and should be used from \*(L"new\*(R" in Dist::Metadata.

METHODS

new

$dist = Dist::Metadata::Struct->new(files => { 'lib/Mod.pm' => 'package Mod; sub something { ... }', });

Accepts a \*(C`files\*(C' parameter that should be a hash of \*(C`{ name => content, }\*(C'. Content can be a string, a reference to a string, or an \s-1IO\s0 object.

default_file_spec

\*(C`Unix\*(C' is the default for consistency/simplicity but \*(C`file_spec\*(C' can be overridden in the constructor.

file_content

Returns the string content for the specified name.

find_files

Returns the keys of the \*(C`files\*(C' hash.
